Logic and Parable
Logic addresses a group of people who can all agree on a set of axioms and delivers them to a single conclusion.
Logic extends comprehension of one’s current context and binds multiple individuals into a coherence.
Parable addresses a group of people who may not agree on a common set of axioms and delivers them to multiple diverse conclusions.
Parable illuminates a larger context with new dimensions and more possibilities.
